The crossover brings fashion items inspired by Kaiju No 8 to PSO2, allowing players to obtain avatar items and weapons based on key characters such as Reno Ichikawa, Kikoru Shinomiya, Mina Ashiro, and Soshiro Hoshina. Players can also acquire their weapons and a full-body suit that transforms them into the notable Kafka Kaiju as well. A new pose, voice tickets, and various cosmetic items like hairstyles and stickers are also available as part of the collaboration.

Here’s how some of those items look in-game.

Alongside these items, a special login bonus will be distributed, offering players acrylic stand-type build parts and SG currency during the collaboration period, which runs until October 9, 2024.

In related news, Atelier Ryza and Atelier Marie also joined PSO2 New Genesis. That crossover event happened earlier in May 2024.

Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis is immediately available on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. A Nintendo Switch version is available in Japan only via cloud streaming.
